Exclusive Olympic Images, Day 6

Shaun White was the one to beat at men’s halfpipe yesterday, but nobody came close. The American turned in a near-perfect performance, and that was before he nailed his much-discussed Double McTwist 1260. Silver went to Peetu Piironon of Finland, and bronze to White’s compatriot, Scott Lago, but it was White’s mountain from start to finish.
